Indeed. On one of my systems BIOS only allows access to the first four
HDDs in the BIOS' boot priority list. What's especially annoying is
that BIOS keep rearranging boot list every time new device is added or
removed or if SATA controller card is moved to another slot. Every
time it happens I have to go back and rearrange the drives so that my
RAIDZ drives are on top of the list.

If you can boot off CD or USB how many drives does bootloader report
just before it gets to the menu?
